- Versions
  The 1010data Insights Platform is available in both a stable production version of the system (Prime) and a version that provides access to the latest features (Beta).
- Sessions
  A session in the 1010data Insights Platform is an established period of communication between a user and the system. A single user ID can only have one session active at a time.

    - Specify automatically imported libraries
      Choose the libraries that are automatically loaded into your workspace when you log in to the 1010data Insights Platform.
- Virtual memory
  The quantity of data that your session can handle at the same time is determined by the amount of virtual memory assigned to your user ID.
- Rows and columns
  Within the 1010data Insights Platform, you will manipulate rows and columns to view your data and perform new computations to gain further insight into your data.
- Data types and display formats
  Data types govern how data is stored internally, and display formats control how that data is displayed.

Libraries

Settings for specifying the libraries that are automatically loaded into your workspace when you log in to the 1010data Insights Platform.

If you regularly import libraries into your workspace, consider customizing your workspace to have those libraries loaded for you automatically. This is useful, for example, if you use custom extended operations in the Trillion-Row Spreadsheet or often refer to library content in Macro Language code.

Figure 1. Libraries tab in the Workspace Settings window

The Libraries tab contains the following:

The libraries in these paths will be imported automatically at login: This field lists the libraries which are automatically imported when you log in. Each library is identified by its full path (path and name).
You can add or remove libraries as necessary. For instructions, see Specify automatically imported libraries.
